Context The actions / work planned under TRAINBUD are grounded by the following facts: Summary description
.
The training and certification structure in Hungary is very complex creating heavy burden especially on SMEs;
1
BUILD UP Skills TRAINBUD, Annex I – Description of action
.
There is a huge number of SMEs and HVAC workers working in the grey economy;
.
It is rather difficult to inspect and monitor the quality of work done in residential buildings due to the fragmented ownership structure of homes (86% of all homes are owned occupied), the lack of habit of preparing suitable contracts between home owners and renovation companies;
.
There is also lack of knowledge on certification and qualification systems for HVAC workers, and on financial and taxation issues among the general public;
.
There is short term thinking of the home owners because of lack of readily available financial resources.
The aim of the project is to create a voluntary qualification system Objectives2
(quality labelling) based on the participatory strategy and actions of the Sustainable Construction Skill Alliance.
Target skills/ professions
blue collar construction workers, especially HVAC workers
Project’s results and impact . Reduction of GHG emissions by energy efficiency improvements and use of RES performed by trained workforce: 8.054 ton/year within action duration and altogether 370.094 ton until 2020. . Easy to reach, practical trainings for HVAC workers: 1) Additional 60 hours training of skilled workers who already acquired a HVAC qualification accepted in National Qualification Registry; 2) 7 types of 20 hours training in energy efficiency and use of RES. Results3
. Clarifying the idea of cost optimum investment for home owners and property managers. . Providing information on energy efficiency and RES solutions to home owners and managers. . Support for choosing workers and SMEs in the workmanship through events and a separate page on the created webpage.
. Set up of a Sustainable Construction Skills Alliance to allow for the longer term continuation of the developed training schemes. . The Sustainable Construction Skills Alliance serves to support the consortium by contributing to the development of the training material and holding the additional practical trainings. The continuous contact and work with the SCSA members encourages Lessons learnt4
them to take part in the action. . New members join the Alliance after every main event of the Hungarian construction industry. The consortium can recruit members for the SCSA during these events.

. The "Train the trainers" activity was a success, because those trainers who participated in the training were satisfied and were more enthusiastic in continuing the training at their own vocational training centres. . There is high interest country-wide about the project from professional training centres thanks to the meetings of the SCSA and the marketing at relevant events from the construction field.
Barriers5
Key needs6
Recommendations7
Difficulty to attract workers because of their lack of time. Harder to reach the older generation. The training and the certificate should be an advantage when performing public works. Different variation of the length of the courses and
more
possibilities for locations close to the working place of people. Vocational training centres can continue the training with the

training materials and instructions provided by the Consortium. More training centres can easily join and start the training as well.
